Re: Bust Ups & Mini Helmets Checklist

No real list yet, but from what GG has said in different Q&A,s lately, they plan on rereleasing most of the .45 helmets we've seen so far.

ROTS White Clone
501st Clone
Shocktrooper
Fett

What I'd like to know is, why in the hell did GG paint the visor insted of actualy making it a see through plastic lens like MR did? Same goes for the mouth piece on the clone helmet, it looks to be painted on and not an actual molded part of the helmet.

The Fett is the only one with a see through visor.

The paint apps are awful. If you look close the helmets have a rough texture and not a smooth one like MR's did.

If these turn out to be the best GG can offer, I don't see myself collecting the mini helmts much longer.

Re: Bust Ups & Mini Helmets Checklist

I'm sure sometime down the line, we will see the Tie Pilot mini halmet. Riddell already had prototypes made before the line was dropped. So I'm sure GG has them now.

Only re-release I'd get would be the shockie. Couldn't see paying $130+ for one of the MR ones so it's the only clone I'm missing. Thing is, GG had better IMPROVE their designs and make 'em look a little closer to the MR versions before I buy any of them.

Re: Bust Ups & Mini Helmets Checklist

I cant believe the finish on the .45 clone trooper!!? its rubbish! like someone said earlier it looks rough and wtf is the painted lense about??? I have all the riddell .45's and am just missing the shock and shadow clone trooper from MR. I will NOT be buying these lil lids if they dont improve by time of release. Very dissapointing.
